Crop Circles. What are they? What do they mean?!

I'm posting this from my mobile device so forgive me if I can't, at the moment make a comprehensive presentation worthy of this topic, but it's
something that's been on my mind lately for some reason, and so I was hoping to draw from the ATS "storehouse" valuable imput in attempting to make
some sense of this very strange an enigmatic phenomenon known as Crop Circles.

What are they do you think, and why are they, what could be thier purpose?

Are they a communication from outside of this world anf if so, what is being communicated?

When someone smiles at you..do you typically smile back? the answer is yes. why? because a smile generates a harmonic frequency...a positive
vibration. For how beautiful a crop circle can turn out whether its man made or alien made..it still generates a harmonic frequency. Frequencies
heal...think about it. could such a beautiful design not only be a message but a sort of harmonic technology that resonates through out the cosmos and
heals damage that has been done? They are healing what has damaged this planet, and sending messages with them.

If NOT man-made, then they are a form of communication, this is obvious. If that's the cae, then I wonder if any significant efforts have been made
to crack the code and produce a type of "Rosettas Stone" by which to "read" them and decifer thier meaning?

Hi,
i just postet a link that it MIGHT EXPLAIN those circles (2 of them); i do not know the persons name who is doing the talking on this video, but i am
sure you can find out, if you are interested.
here is the link ______beforeitsnews/story/916/576/Nibiru_Arrival_Date_Confirmed_In_A_Crop_Circle.html

So I take it that some of you think they are made by man, presumably from some sort of space-based platform, as a provocative hoax.. is that about
right? If so, are there not reports of them occuring before the spaceage of man?

uuummmm.... space based platform? where is the evidence that any crop circle originated from outer space? :S

Good point, maybe it's an interstellar communications medium who's message is only intended for those species capable of decifering the newsfeed.
Maybe it's "them" talking about us, or debating the state of our evolutionary progress or lack thereof, or simply statements being about various
emerging cosmological connecting pricipals or advancements in scientific understanding, but if so why Earth as the canvass, unless the messages are
going out to all earthlike worlds.

So i guess i'm really wondering here about the notion of a communications medium which employs symbolic sacred geometry as an intersteller
language..

This makes more sense to me, given the overall scope of the phenomenon, than that of the man-made hoax hypothesis..

Originally, they were patches of damaged crops, after UFO's had supposedly landed there.
The rough circles, possibly with evidence of landing gear, was touted as physical evidence that there really was a UFO there at that time.

Later, the traces were more evident, with proper "circles".
Later, the circles became more elaborate.
Later, the patterns became more elaborate.
Later, they became really wild and wacky, with some showing pictures of aliens smoking weed, or jellyfish, or spelling out words, or giving you 'the
bird'.

Please offer your explanation then as a "ground based" hypthesis, thanks. I was referring to the idea of satellites with plasma beams or lasers
toyed with by geeks at NASA that kind of thing.

The short answer is probably not. Silicon simply doesn’t have the moves. While carbon is perfectly comfortable in a variety of different
structures (rings, long chains, multi-ring chains, and double-bonded carbon catenations), silicon’s analogous structures are comparatively unstable
and sometimes highly reactive. Additionally, such analogous silicon compounds may never occur in nature; the largest silicon molecule ever observed
had only six silicon atoms. In contrast, some carbon-based molecules can have tens of thousands!

well, people (not necessarily hippies) with boards has been proven.. any other theory has not..

Hey NewAgeMan, I have been somewhat interested in crop circles for many years now, and I personally believe most are man made, but man got the idea to
replicate them from something else. The questions you ask are hard to answer, assuming some are not man made.

Consider this, though...

More than 10,000 Crop Circle formations (Agriglyphs) have been found or catalogued worldwide. More than 6,000 crop circles have been investigated
and documented since 1980.

Crop circles are usually not round, but slightly elliptical. In a real crop circle the plant's shafts/stalks (mostly wheat, but also grass, barley,
canola, buckwheat, linseed, rice paddies, corn, sunflowers, blueberry bushes, trees, etc.) are bent around an inch above soil (corn stalks are bent a
couple of inches above the soil) and the plants are laid in precise geometric swirl patterns with little signs of physical damage. There may be light
burn marks at the base of stems, altered cellular structure and soil chemistry, increased magnetic particle deposits, discrepancies in background
radiation, alteration of the local electromagnetic field, depletion of the local watershed, along with long-lasting energy patterns. Some analyzed
crop circles have shown higher radiation levels. Crop circles range in size from a few inches to hundreds of feet across and have been as large as
200,000 sq. ft.

In real crop circle formations the stems are not broken but bent at 90° angles about an inch off the ground, at the plant's first node. The plants
are subjected to a short and intense burst of heat or energy that softens the stems or stalks allowing them to be folded over onto the ground at a
90° angle. When the stems or stalks reharden into their new position, the plants and crop are not damaged and continue to grow. This is the method
used to identify a real crop circle formation (agriglyph). The canola oil plant has a structure like celery. If the stalk is bent more than about
45°, the stalk will break. When crop circles are found in canola fields, the stalks are bent 90°. Research and laboratory tests suggest that
microwave or ultrasound may be the only method capable of producing this effect, but plant biologists are still baffled by this phenomenon.
